Tips:

Chilling the dough before baking will help the cookies spread less and keep their shape.
For chewier cookies, chill the dough for longer.
If you don't want the cinnamon sugar coating, you can roll the dough in granulated or powdered sugar instead.
To make the cookies even more flavorful, try using a different type of sugar in the coating, such as brown sugar or maple sugar.
If you don't have cream of tartar, you can substitute cornstarch or baking powder.
To make sure the cookies are baked evenly, rotate the baking sheet halfway through the baking time.

Conclusion:

These snickerdoodles are a classic cookie that is perfect for any occasion. They are soft, chewy, and full of flavor. The cinnamon sugar coating gives them a sweet and crunchy exterior. These cookies are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them.
